Lately, she's done a couple of vlogs--video blogs, for those who aren't familiar with that term. I can't help but wonder how a vlog would turn out if I were to record one. On the one hand, I think I would look and sound like a complete nerd. Seriously. But on the other hand, it could be fun. Right? Maybe? I don't know.
I enjoy the fact that my blog sounds like me. I made a conscious decision when I started my blog to write the way I talk, because my actual writing style is much more...formal. And definitely does not sound like me. But the point of a blog isn't to impress people with my fabulous vocabulary and knowledge of grammar. So, I sacrifice a little bit of that so my blog actually sounds....right.
But how would a vlog sound? See, I'm concerned that I would ramble. I tend to ramble even when I write posts, but at least I can self-edit. If I were recording, I'd have to just start over, or go with the rambling. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
So, what do my (few) readers think? Should I create a video post? Or no?
HAhahahaha!! I guess I'm glad that my blog sounds like me. I, too, have to make a concerted effort at times to write how I talk. It has gotten easier over time though! I think you should definitely do a vlog! In case you haven't noticed--I totally ramble...in every one of them. (Psst! I even have video editing software, but I'm too lazy to edit, so people are forced to listen to my rambling if they want to watch the vlog....) DO IT!!
